This property has been on Booking.com since Feb 6, 2013.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Tips for writing a great review

Give us details. People love to hear about the little things. Was the air conditioning working? Was there a chocolate on your pillow? We like long reviews, so you should try to write at least 50 words.

Be candid. Give us your honest opinion. We’ll never remove a review just because it’s negative. We promise.

Be relevant. The best reviews provide constructive information that helps other travelers make better choices. Stay on topic and avoid content that others might find offensive.

Sometimes we'll remove reviews if they include any of the following:

Objectionable material. This includes insulting or discriminatory remarks, swearing, or other offensive language.

Private information. To protect your (and others') privacy we do not display reviews that include email addresses or phone numbers.

Sensitive information. We don't display reviews that contain information with possible legal implications. This includes references to suspected illegal conduct or allusions to lost or stolen items. In such sensitive cases, please contact our Customer Service Team, who will be happy to help.

Irrelevant topics. This includes promotional content and politically sensitive subjects.

In some rare cases, neither the written review nor the review score can be displayed. This only happens if:

Key information is missing. A few review questions are mandatory. If these aren’t answered, we aren't able to calculate a fair review score, so we can't display the review.

You didn’t stay at the property. When necessary, we’ll confirm this information with both you and the property owner.

You made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. We won’t post yours. If you reviewed a different property from the one you booked, let us know. We can fix it so that your review shows with the right property.

The review is a fake. If there's any indication that a review is not authentic or is in any way fraudulent, it will be flagged during the moderation process.

Couldn't book in until 4 but could leave car there all the time which made up for it.

Location, breakfast and the gardens and history of the house.

Hosts were very helpful with a pleasant manner. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The overall impact of Ground Manor is impressive with an amazing feel. Garden and conservatory are very appealing. We had a lovely weekend with a full cumbrian breakfast and vegetarian breakfast with other options available. Only 5 minute walk along a short lane into Hawkshead centre. Fab ☺

Only the fact that I had to leave.

Lovely helpful owners; beautifully finished period home; access to gorgeous garden and conservatory; scrupulously clean; very good breakfast; strong wifi; parking on grounds; welcome cuppa and cake in garden on arrival. We stayed in four poster room and it was an absolute treat to have such a spacious room and HUGE bathroom after 4 weeks on the road. Particularly enjoyed the fact that house was built in 1680 and still retained most original features. Loved the fact that we could open windows in bedroom and bathroom. Slept llike logs, in fact missed a very severe thunder storm. Many great walks around Hawkshead and several pubs and cafes within five minute walk. We parked car and left it. Well done Sue and Richard.

Nothing to dislike.

Quiet location and a short walk to Hawkshead Village. The room was clean and comfortable and very spacious. The little touch of coffee and cake on arrival was a nice gesture and the little chocolates treats in the bedroom was also nice. The choice of breakfast was very good and we found the hosts Sue and Richard were excellent.
